Sopik played well there and then got dinged so Darkangelo came in and was noteworthy. But Sopik is a FA and Darkangelo got a look down south, so who knows? Don’t take it to heart. Every Canadian is a starter.

January 8Jan 8 comment_741997 There was an article about guys getting workouts. Tyrell ford had a few. Ayers had a couple. Even pokey Wilson with the Jets. broncos seem to be a common team when it comes to who bringing them in for looks but Falcons with cfl ties sign them.

Can't see them selecting Brent Monson over him after the great job he did as temp DC after taking over last season. Not sure what's going on in Hamilton, they've loaded up on paper pushers and have only 2 coaches on staff right now in Milanovich and Monson. Maybe a wee bit top heavy?

January 8Jan 8 comment_742030 I saw a story on X today that the Raiders are going after Belichek to be their President of Football Operations or some such title. He'd run the Raiders. The guy hires a college staff & then leaves. Then watch, Chris Jones takes over as Head Coach from Bill at UNC. The guy has more livs than a cat. Edited January 8Jan 8 by SpeedFlex27

One thing I've learned about serious career football coaches is that for most of them their word means ****. They'll tell you something that they know you want to hear. Make a promise & then break their word & do something else. Not all of them. There are some decent & kind assistants & head coaches around whose word is their bond. But the majority are so busy worrying about being fired, chasing another job or looking to leave where they are at present that it just consumes them. They have very few friends outside of football. Chris Jones fits that description to a tee. Edited January 9Jan 9 by SpeedFlex27

Yep, he even went as far as to name some of Campbells assistants when he took over the L's. He had Sherrit as the DC (correct but for the wrong HC) and Killam as STC (partial points for getting the team right but the role wrong). TBF, he wasn't alone. Some Edmonton media guys were convinced the Campbell history there, made Rick as HC a no-brainer.

I can get not trusting stanback with blocking. Butler is a better fit for what buck wants to do clearly. But quality wise he just isn’t there.
